Assigning a Static IP to the WAN (Optional)
If required by your Internet Service Provider, you can set a static IP for the WAN interface.
To set a static IP for the WAN interface:
1. In your browser, type the URL https://[your Cato Socket's IP address]. For example:
https://10.0.0.15
If this is a new socket that has never been connected, connect your computer to the MGMT port,
then in your browser type the following URL: https://169.254.100.1
2. Enter your login credentials.
• If this is the first time that you are logging in to the window, use the following credentials:
username = admin
password = admin
You will then need to change these credentials to your own.
• After six consecutive failed login attempts, you will be locked out of your account for at least 30
minutes.
3. In the Cato Socket Configuration window, click Network Settings and click Static Address.
4. In IP Address, enter the static IP address. If required, modify any other static address parameters.
5. Click Update.
Connecting the Socket through PPPoE (Optional)
If required by your Internet Service Provider, you can define a PPPoE connection for the WAN interface.
To define a PPPoE connection for the WAN interface:
1. In your browser, type the URL https://[your Cato Socket's IP address]. For example:
https://10.0.0.15
If this is a new socket that has never been connected, connect your computer to the MGMT port,
then in your browser type the following URL: https://169.254.100.1
2. Enter your login credentials.
• If this is the first time that you are logging in to the window, use the following credentials:
username = admin
password = admin
You will then need to change these credentials to your own.
• After six consecutive failed login attempts, you will be locked out of your account for at least 30
minutes.
3. In the Cato Socket Configuration window, click Network Settings and click PPPoE.
4. In the PPP account (user) name, PPP account secret (password) and Confirm password
fields, enter the information provided by your ISP. If required, modify any other PPPoE fields as
instructed by your ISP.
5. Click Update.
Assigning Your Socket to a Site
Once a Socket is up and running, it automatically connects to an optimal PoP in the Cato Cloud and
checks if a new version of the Socket firmware is available.
If the Cato Socket detects that a new version of the firmware is available, it automat-
ically performs an upgrade and the Cato Management Application shows the New
Socket Detected notification.
